03:21We heard multiple shots go off in quick succession from the first floor, and a lot of us just rushed into the room.
03:27Armed officers racing in behind the suspect, conducting a floor-by-floor search.
03:32Police say the suspect apparently barricaded himself on the 33rd floor and was later found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
03:40And David, the FBI is now on the scene, assisting the NYPD in this urgent investigation.
03:47Authorities tonight still searching for the motive.
03:49David.
03:50Nightline anchor Juju Chang with us here tonight.
03:51Juju, thank you.
03:52I know you'll be working this throughout the evening.
03:54We turn to the other news here tonight and the life-threatening heat gripping much of the country.
03:58More than 200 million Americans on alert from New York City right down to Florida, from New Orleans over to Raleigh.
04:03The heat index, when you factor in the heat and the humidity combined, expected to be well above 100 across the eastern half of the country.
04:11In New York City, it'll feel like 104.
04:13From New Orleans to Raleigh, it'll feel like 110 to 115.
04:17Authorities tonight are calling this a long-duration heat wave, the heat building from day to day with little relief at night.
04:23New York City this evening activating a heat emergency plan.
04:26Tonight, several states also bracing for storms and dangerous winds.
04:29New York City, Philadelphia, Boston with worsening conditions tomorrow.
04:33So, meteorologist Jeff Smith has the forecast, and here's ABC's Victor Akendo.
04:37Tonight, a life-threatening, long-duration heat wave has 200 million Americans desperate for relief.
04:45From the New Yorkers riding the subway.
04:47It's steamy.
04:49To the workers toiling in the savannah heat.
04:51Today has been busy from the word go.
04:53We started writing calls early this morning, and it was 90 degrees at 9 a.m.
04:56So, it has been non-stop for heat illnesses.
04:59Anyone spending time outdoors is at risk.
05:01Pedro Reti telling me he keeps a close eye on his crew in this heat.
05:06When it's this hot, do you have to keep an eye on the other guys and make sure they're doing okay?
05:10Oh, yeah.
05:10Yeah, yeah.
05:11Yes, sir.
05:12The city's fire department using these special ice-packed vests to keep their firefighters, who carry 75 pounds of extra gear, cool.
05:19Battalion Chief Wayne Eiffel says whether you're a firefighter or not, the message is the same.
05:25Hydrate.
05:26That's number one.
05:27We tell people if you're hydrating the day of, you're ready.
05:31You're ready late.
05:32You need to hydrate for tomorrow, today.
05:34Back in New York City, authorities activating their heat emergency plan, opening cooling centers, and keeping city pools open later.
05:42The heat and humidity, also a perfect recipe for severe storms.
05:48Multiple tornadoes touching down in the upper Midwest Sunday, this one in Watertown, South Dakota.
05:55And, David, there is no relief here in Savannah tonight.
05:58Even at midnight, the heat index is still 90 degrees.
06:02That just makes the body work harder to keep cool.
06:05And this goes all the way up the East Coast.
06:07Tomorrow, New York City will feel like 104.
06:10David?
06:10Yeah, these evenings do not let the body recover.
06:12Victor Kendall leading us on.
06:13Victor, thank you.
06:14Let's get right to meteorologist Jeff Smith from our New York station, WABC.
06:17Jeff, great to have you.
06:18It gets even worse tomorrow.
06:21Yeah, and, David, these heat advisories continue in the New York City area right through Wednesday.
06:24But this is such an extreme and wide-ranging heat wave across much of the central and eastern part of the country.
06:30Extreme heat warnings in these purple areas.
06:32We're talking St. Louis all the way down to Jackson, Mississippi, New Orleans, Savannah up to Raleigh.
06:36Heat index values could be 110 to, in some cases, 120 degrees in these areas.
06:41Check out what it will feel like Tuesday afternoon.
06:43Some eye-popping numbers.
06:45Memphis, 114.
06:46Little Rock, 111.
06:47Savannah, 110.
06:48And we do not get much relief at all across the southeast right through the latter part of the week.
06:53In the northeast, we'll get relief from storms by Thursday into Friday.
06:56Those storms right now firing up over eastern South Dakota, moving into parts of Minnesota and northern Iowa.
07:01Could be damaging winds of 75 to 90 miles per hour.
07:04David?
07:05Watching that as well.
07:06Jeff Smith with us tonight.
07:07Thank you, Jeff.
07:08Tonight, authorities are on the scene of a deadly boating accident.
07:10Two children thrown off a boat, killed.
07:12Others also thrown off that boat in critical condition tonight.
07:15It happened off Miami Beach.
07:17The image is coming in now.
07:18Authorities say a barge struck a sailboat with five children and one adult on board, throwing them all overboard, sinking the sailboat.
07:26Rescue teams, including multiple divers, racing to try to rescue the children.
07:30ABC's Perry Russom is in Miami tonight.
07:32Tonight, two children are dead after a barge slammed into a sailboat off Miami Beach, causing the sailboat to sink.
07:39We and the little female are going to be under the boat.
07:43Divers frantically searching Biscayne Bay near Hibiscus Island out around 1130 this morning, pulling victims from the water one by one.
07:50They are performing CPR on the Miami Beach Coast.
07:53Authorities say that barge rammed into and over the sailboat, tossing six people, including five children, overboard, setting off a massive rescue effort.
08:01All the kids went flying off.
08:03Two were found really quickly and three of them, they had to go to the hospital.
08:07Those children, all part of a youth sailing camp.
08:09The one adult on board, a female counselor.
08:12This was all hands on deck.
08:13All units responded.
08:15They immediately started to render aid and pull these victims out of the water.
08:19In addition to the two dead, two of the other sailors are in critical condition tonight.
08:23Officials say the sailboat remains submerged under the barge.
08:27And tonight, the Miami Yacht Club confirming the crash involved participants from their Youth Sailing Foundation.
08:32The Yacht Club says their priority is the safety and well-being of everyone involved.
08:35As the investigation gets started, we are learning new information from the Coast Guard.
08:40They say the children killed are two girls, ages 7 and 13 years old.
08:44The Coast Guard calling this absolutely devastating.
08:47David.
08:48Perry Russell reporting in tonight from Miami.
08:50Perry, thank you.
08:50There is also breaking news coming in from Nevada tonight, a deadly shooting outside a casino in Reno.
08:55Authorities say the gunman opening fire in the valet parking area.
08:59Authorities were revealing more just moments ago, so let's get right to ABC's Trevor Rull.
09:02What have we learned, Trevor?
09:03Well, David, we just heard from authorities that three people are dead and three more were shot and injured
09:09after a man with a handgun walked up to the valet area of the Grand Sierra Resort in Reno
09:13and opened fire on a group of people.
09:16They say he tried to flee.
09:17He was confronted by security and by police officers.
09:20They say he opened fire on them as well.
09:22They returned fire, arrested him at the scene, and he was taken to the hospital.
09:26Now, a motive is not yet clear, but they did say he had multiple magazines on him at the time.
09:30This could have been far worse, and the resort says they are heartbroken by this senseless violence, David.
09:35Trevor Rull with late reporting for us.
09:37Trevor, thank you.
09:38Now to President Trump on the world stage, the Jeffrey Epstein controversy following him.
09:42The president with British Prime Minister negotiating tariffs, but pressed today by reporters and Jeffrey Epstein,
09:47and convicted co-conspirator Glenn Maxwell, who just met with the Justice Department over two days.
09:52The president saying he is allowed to pardon Glenn Maxwell, and then describing what led to his falling out with Jeffrey Epstein.
09:59Here's our chief investigative correspondent, Aaron Katursky, now.
10:02Tonight, Jeffrey Epstein's accomplice, Glenn Maxwell, is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to hear her appeal of her conviction for sex trafficking Epstein's teenage victims.
10:11It follows Maxwell's extraordinary two-day meeting with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, a closed-door interview that lasted nine hours.
10:19Blanche, until recently, was President Trump's personal attorney, and today the president would not rule out pardoning Maxwell.
10:26Well, I'm allowed to give her a pardon, but nobody's approached me with it.
10:30Nobody's asked me about it.
10:32It's in the news about that, that aspect of it, but right now it would be inappropriate to talk about it.
10:43Trump and Epstein were friends for more than a decade, socializing in New York and Palm Beach.
10:48Today, the president said he never accepted an invitation to visit Epstein's private Caribbean island,
10:53where underage girls were allegedly trafficked for sex.
10:56I never had the privilege of going to his island, and I did turn it down, but a lot of people in Palm Beach were invited to his island.
11:05In one of my very good moments, I turned it down. I didn't want to go to his island.
11:10When Epstein was arrested in 2019, Trump said they hadn't spoken in 15 years.
11:14Today, the president describing what led to their falling out, that Epstein had hired Trump employees from Mar-a-Lago.
11:21Stole people that worked for me. I said, don't ever do that again. He did it again.
11:26And I threw him out of the place, persona non grata. I threw him out, and that was it.
11:33I'm glad I did, if you want to know the truth.
11:36David, we still don't know what information Ghislaine Maxwell may have provided to the deputy attorney general,
11:41but we do know she is serving a 20-year prison sentence, and she wants out.
11:46David.
11:46Aaron Katursky with us here tonight. Aaron, thank you.
11:49This evening, amid the devastating images coming out of Gaza, President Trump tonight saying this is real starvation
11:55after Israel's claim there is no famine. President Trump tonight saying you can't fake that.
12:00Rachel Scott traveling with the president in Scotland.
12:04Tonight, the world's seeing images like these. Desperate families in Gaza reaching through bars, begging for food.
12:11President Trump on the world stage saying yes, the people of Gaza are starving, and the United States will step in to help.
12:21I mean, some of those kids are, that's real starvation stuff. I see it. And you can't fake that. So we're going to be even more involved.
12:31The Hamas-run health ministry says 147 people have died from famine and malnutrition. 88 of them, children.
12:41Today in Gaza City, this mother carrying home a single bowl of thin soup, her three children then gathering around to eat.
12:48But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insists there is no starvation.
12:52I don't know. I mean, based on television, I would say not particularly because those children look very hungry.
13:03But we're giving a lot of money and a lot of food. And other nations are now stepping up.
13:09The president today also turning up the heat on Russia's Vladimir Putin.
13:13He had given Putin 50 days until early December to make a peace deal with Ukraine.
13:17He's now moving up that deadline.
13:20I'm going to make a new deadline of about 10 or 12 days from today.
13:27There's no reason in waiting. There's no reason in waiting.
13:31It's 50 days. I want to be generous, but we just don't see any progress being made.
13:37The president has threatened to hit Russia with, quote, very severe tariffs.
13:41He's also wielding tariffs to negotiate trade deals, overnight unveiling a new agreement with the European Union.
13:47As part of the deal, the EU will buy American military equipment and $750 billion worth of American energy.
13:55And they will drop all tariffs on most American goods.
13:58The U.S., however, will impose a 15 percent tariff on most European products we import, including cars, pharmaceuticals and computer chips.
14:07Economists warn American businesses will pay those tariffs and pass the cost along to consumers by raising prices.
14:13Another big part of why the president is here is to promote the family business.
14:18The president holding all of these meetings at the Trump family golf courses.
14:22And tomorrow, he'll cut the ribbon on a new one in Aberdeen.
14:25David.
14:25Rachel Scott in Scotland for us.
14:27Rachel, thank you back here in the U.S. to the knife attack at a Walmart.
14:30Tonight, we have new video here showing the moment that Good Samaritans confronted the suspect accused of stabbing 11 people.
14:36ABC's Mola Lenghi is in Traverse City, Michigan tonight.
14:40Tonight, you're watching the moment.
14:42Police say these Good Samaritans jumped into action to take down a knife-wielding suspect who went on a random stabbing spree at a Walmart in Michigan.
14:50One man seen here pointing a gun at the suspect, yelling at him to drop the knife allegedly used to injure 11 people, including a Walmart employee.
14:59Derek Perry is the man holding the gun, now being hailed a hero.
15:02In an interview with ABC News, Perry, a husband, father, and former Marine, says anyone would have done what he did.
15:09I didn't think of anything other than trying to get him away from people and get him isolated and get him to put the knife down and just to kind of focus on me instead of everyone that was yelling and screaming in the background.
15:21Today, the suspect, 42-year-old Bradford James Gilley, appearing in court, now charged with terrorism and 11 counts of assault with the intent to murder,
15:30after police say he entered the Walmart around 4 p.m. Saturday and began attacking people near the checkout area with this folding knife that has a three-and-a-half-inch blade.
15:39It seemed like all of the people who got stabbed and got attacked were people who couldn't physically get out of his way, like people in wheelchairs.
15:47Well, of the 11 injured, the worst off were six, initially in critical condition.
15:53Tonight, David, all six have been upgraded and are said to be doing better.
15:56All right, Mola Lenghi with us here tonight.
15:58Mola, thank you.
15:59And we should note there will be much more from that hero tomorrow morning on Good Morning America.
16:03In the meantime, we turn now to the urgent manhunt at this hour after a mother and father were murdered while hiking with their two young daughters.
16:10The daughters were not harmed.
16:12Here's Pierre Thomas.
16:12Tonight, the urgent manhunt for the suspect who murdered a couple who were out hiking with their young daughters in an Arkansas state park.
16:21The horror unfolding Saturday as Clinton Brink and his wife Kristen were under attack with their daughters ages seven and nine nearby at the Devil's Den State Park south of Fayetteville.
16:32We're going to look out for a white male suspect wearing black gloves, sunglasses.
16:36The situation growing more desperate moments later.
16:39Here's Yale calling for help.
16:41We found the victims down here.
16:43They're on the lower Devil's Den trail.
16:44I've got two bodies down here.
16:46Tonight, the mystery unfolding with signs the attack may have been premeditated.
16:51Police reporting that the suspect fled in a black four-door sedan, possibly a Mazda, with his license plate covered by heavy duct tape.
16:59Police, with the help of the FBI, now searching a massive and remote area where there was no cell phone coverage and there may be limited access to surveillance cameras.
17:08Police have yet to say exactly how the couple was killed.
17:13So many unanswered questions.
17:14But what they do know is someone incredibly dangerous is still at large.
17:18David.
17:19Pierre Thomas with us tonight.
17:20Pierre, thank you.
17:21When we come back here, agents storm the cockpit of a Delta passenger flight in front of passengers, arresting one of the pilots.
17:27What he's accused of tonight, also just in a small plane, has crashed into a neighborhood, hitting a car that was going down.
17:33Seven people raced to the hospital, including several children.
17:37And former NFL star and college football coach Deion Sanders, emotional before the cameras today.

17:45Just a moment here.
17:46Tonight, the arrest on board a packed Delta flight, moments after it landed in San Francisco.

17:59Tonight, first responders are on the scene of a small plane crash in Palm Beach County, Florida.
18:03The plane skimming the top of a car as it was coming down, crashing just after takeoff.
18:08Two people on board the plane, five people in that car, including four children.
18:12All of them have been taken to the hospital.
18:14When we come back tonight, the new study on Alzheimer's and how you can slow the decline with some very simple steps.
18:21And former NFL star and college football coach Deion Sanders, emotional in front of the cameras today and what he revealed.
18:28To the index in tonight, two new studies suggest certain lifestyle changes can help delay the onset of Alzheimer's.
18:34In both studies, researchers say moderate exercise, changes in diet and mental stimulation can all help slow cognitive decline
18:42in older adults who are at a higher than average risk of the disease.
18:46Researchers also suggest participating in structured groups helps older adults stay sharp.

19:30No symptoms.
19:32No nothing.
19:33Healthy.
